Fairfax County residents speak out about limits to home gatherings (Video)

WASHINGTON — Fairfax County is considering whether to regulate how frequently people can host large gatherings in their homes.

“Party after party after party. It’s been a real nightmare,” says a county resident whose comments were captured by FOX5 at a community meeting on the matter Wednesday evening.

Homeowners fed up with constant parades of people, cars and noise in their neighborhoods were far out-numbered at the meeting by residents against proposed limits, says FOX 5.

The Group Assembly in Residential Dwellings measure being considered by Fairfax County lawmakers would limit the number of people who can visit a home to 49 per day, and no more than three over-sized gatherings could occur within 40 days.

Also, it would specify the nature and types of gatherings that would be exempt from the proposed restrictions.

“I think this is unconstitutional — 100 percent,” says Peter Demetri recorded by FOX5 at the meeting.
